At $20 US if this type of game has any interest to you, you should buy it. The frustrations I have with games like Dark Souls don’t exist here. There is no penalty for death, instead simply a learning experience as you progress through the incredible story that deserves to...
In my time with ENDER LILIES, I did not run into any bugs and I found the game to be very competent. Levels do a great job of leading the player where to go next, and the map is not a detailed nuisance but only shows exits available in each...
‘Arise: A Simple Story’ is a well-designed Platform Puzzler with a very clever time manipulation mechanic. The game is very striking visually and the musical score picks you up and carries you along the way with it. The puzzles are not over-taxing but are challenging enough to keep you interested...
As mentioned in our review, we did not get access to the online portions of the game prior to launch, and as such we could not measure the stability of the online services. Since launch, I have been trying almost every night to join some online races, but it’s not...
The Last Campfire is relatively easy to complete, and while the story is fairly surface-level when it comes to exploring meaning, loss, and frustration, it is easy for everyone to understand and that is good enough. The visuals are dark and the sun rarely strikes through, but its art style...
We chose to take our sweet time to review Knockout City because a multiplayer title can hardly be judged on its opening day, it needs to stand the test of time. Perhaps it would be late to assign a rating when the game’s past its prime, but we’re certainly curious...
The Wild at Heart, even with the few frustrations I had, was a fun adventure game. Its story is not horribly depressing but keeps a somber mood of the hardships the two kids and the people of the woods face, and the gameplay is easy to get into. It is...
SnowRunner
This game is so damned relaxing, but it is not going to be for everyone. It is never fast, and any attempts at doing things quickly will almost certainly end in disaster. If you’re looking for something that can last you hundreds of hours as you slowly and sometimes surely...
Chivalry 2
I absolutely love this game. Torn Banner has nailed things with a mix of great gameplay, hilarious sounds, ridiculous weapon pick-ups, and an engaging leveling system. It is 99.9% meant to be played online against other people, as there is no campaign mode. For $40 at launch there is more...
Biomutant
As a $60 title, this one is a hard sell. There is enough content here, but I found it so repetitive that I wouldn’t imagine most would go through it. The story is decent, the gameplay can be quite fun at times, and supporting smaller developers is never bad if...
Destroy All Humans! is a modern looking remake of a game that is clearly from another time. The open level structure allows players to create chaos and play around. The story isn’t anything to write home about and is still stuck in 2005 but all things considered this...
